A professional quality iOS and Android app to introduce seekers to Sahaja Yoga, and supporting intermediate seekers in public programs.

Why develop this app?

Increasingly people who are interested meditation look for a phone app as their first interest in meditation. This is especially true amongst the younger more technically savvy population. The idea of trying meditation is increasingly popular. Free meditation apps are an accessible solution for people who don't want to commit to a class.

While we don't have the marketing power to compete with apps like Headspace and Calm, it is within our capability to create an app of the same professional quality. There are a few Sahaj apps out there, but they are often difficult to navigate and poorly designed.

Once this app is developed, it can be recommended directly to friends, in public programs and on realisation tours - rather than relying on advertising.

Guided Meditations Library

The primary feature of this app will be a library of guided meditations. This is what most people look for in a meditation app.

The plan is to start with a very small but professional app, and then expand the features based on user testing and feedback. Future iterations of the app may include tracking personal goals, and recommending guided meditations based on what the user tells us that they feel on their hands.

Directing Seekers to Programs

Although this will not be ready in the first iteration of the app, it will be possible to use the app to direct seekers to attend local public programs. The first step would be to integrate the app with the Sahaj Atlas project, in order to list all public programs world wide.

An even more advanced implementation would allow us to send notifications to users' phones when there is a special event in their area, or when they travel to a new location.
